Aldo Shoes Reviews

Rude,Ignorant sales people
l have always had good customer service from Aldos for the last five years when l shop at any of their stores in Chicago, especially at their Bucktown locations on milwaukee avenue.However, my latest experience at their store in Lincoln park located at 2044 North Halsted, chicago on Saturday the 9th of October, 2010 was shocking in how blatantly racist the salespeople were in my opinion.l wear a combination of BCBG, Arden B AND Zara and my shoes are either predominantly from Akira or Aldos, and on this day, l was dressed(like l normally would)in BCBG/Zara and Aldos boots, this apparel load-down is to give you an idea of how l normally present myself, so the attitude from this people was definitely not because l was looking shabby, it was only because they were obviously jealous and Racist.l entered the store after l had shopped in my other favourite store 'Arden b' and l got weird looks from these three odd girls and only one salesperson said 'hi' to me only after l got close to her as l was looking at a shelf beside where she was standing.None of them offered to ask if they could help me find what l needed.Five secs after l came in, two male or/Male and female(not sure about the 2nd person) Caucasians walked into the store and the greetings, welcomes, jokes, the sucking up, and ass kissing and little friendly chats started pouring in from all the corners of the store to them.When l heard all that behind me, l walked straight out, l also took my $600 with me to spend on shoes at Akira, it may not be a lot to some people but it was mine and certainly not going to the store while those ignorant beeyaches were working that shift.l bet you after all that sucking up, they ended up not buying anything, which is normally the case!Good Customer service is the only way to great sales, first sales lesson.

No Consumer Policy
I have been a regular customer of ALDO shoes for over 10 years untio my last purchase. I purchased a pair of casual shoes and in less than six months the back (heel) or the shoe fell apart. Called the local store to inquire about the return options only to find out once the shoe is worn there is absolutely no return or exchange regardless of the day the shoe was purchased.
That was my last purchase of any item from the ALDO company. I will tell all my family and friends not to purchase any item from ALDO !

Worst Customer Service
I was offered a £20 gift voucher when both heels fell of the boots I purchased! I'd only had them 10 days! Terrible customer service, it's a joke!

Terrible Service
I have been trying for the last few days to place an order for a few pairs of shoes online, however the system was not working and rejected my order. I called customer service and was told the system was not working and to try again the next day. I did so, and I discovered the shoes I was trying to order were no longer available in my size, I wear a size 5 which are very difficult to find. I selected a couple other pairs and again tried to place an order which again did not go through. I called customer service again, this time to place the order via phone. Here is when problems arose. The customer service representative was very helpful at first, but when my order did not go through she returned to the phone a different person. She told me my account information was locked because of repeated order attempts. When I asked questions about how this could happen, and what options I had, because I did not want to lose out on the other shoes I had selected and wanted to know if there was any way to put them on hold anywhere, I was rudely yelled at, accused of identity fraud, since apparently I must be doing something wrong to lock out my information, and told there were no other options to get the shoes I desperately wanted. She basically told me that other people who really wanted the shoes had more of a right than I to purchase them and that I would have to deal with it and wait 72 hours. I have never been so poorly treated and could not believe the service I received! When I asked to speak with a supervisor I was told I would have to wait until one was available and then was rudely put on hold, where after waiting I hung up. I will be sure to tell others who shop at Aldo Shoes about this poor customer treatment because it was completely unprofessional and rude beyond belief! I have worked several years in retail at Nordstrom and Victoria's Secret and had I EVER treated a customer even remotely like this I would have been fired on the spot. It is so sad that the former "customer is always right" doctrine is no longer in service.

Absolute Garbage
I spent three years of my life working my tail off for this company in Michigan. I was definitely passionate about Aldo, and their business standards as a whole, but that quickly diminished once I learned the truth within the company and their employees. Every single store manager, key holder, and associate was trained to basically make your life a living hell. Every actual hard working person in that store, such as me, was under appreciated and completely belittled. I spent every day being harassed by my store managers. I stayed long hours and came in on my days off, just to help those idiots out and I got nothing in return. By far the worst experience in my life, I will never, ever be apart of such crap again. Cannot believe I stayed as long as I did, I guess I truly thought my passion about the company itself would override everything in the end, but it did NOT!

DO NOT take interest in this company for employment, it is not a team of compassionate, honest people. They will almost eat you alive.

Poor product quality
It would be really nice iy somebody could check the products -shoes before the boxes ship out.my last 3 orders i found things wrong with what i've ordered.one pair of shoes was damaged, my local store offered to repair them and now it's been 2 weeks and i still don't have the shoes back, then the next time the shoes were really dirty, full of dust and the box was almost destroyed, and the third time the ends of the heels are not put in right and makes the shoes just look funy.
if somebody would just open the boxed it would save everybody a lot of trouble.

Poor quality, overpriced, uncomfortable
I've only had three pairs of shoes from Aldo. The first, boots with 2" heels. Fine for the first 5 mins, extremely painful afterwards. A friend who lent it, had to walk home on bare feet on pavement! Braving the possibility of glass and other nasty stuff was more comfortable than wearing their shoes!
The second pair, after learning my lesson I bought on sale. They fit well and looked good but I had to return because again, they were too painful. Last pair were winter boots that were extremely heavy and clunky. Having learned my lesson, I only look at their shoes to see which styles I like and then hunt for different brands.

Half of the shoe sole disappeared after 4 uses
I bought a pair of white flats on sale and wore them only 4 times within one week (walked only on hard wood floors and once on pavement). Half of the shoe sole is already gone. In addition to that, they get scratched really easily and a part of the side of the shoe is already completely worn out and you can see layers of what the shoe is made of which looks a LOT like cardboard. I would LOVE to get my money back even though they were on sale. Will attempt to return but it will probably be useless judging by other reviews here.

Their online facility is ridiculous
I bought 2 pairs of boots from Aldo online. Despite filtering the website for my size, with the first pair they waited 10 days to inform me they did not have my size. Disappointing, and would stop me using the website going forward as obviously the stock is not accurately reflected on the website. The second pair were an absolute nightmare. They advised me that UPS would be delivering the boots at last, 3 weeks after I bought them. I waited and no boots arrived. After a week nothing had still arrived. I tried e-mailing them 10 times but no one got back to me. The reference number for UPS they gave me was not valid. I tried ringing Aldo's customer services but after 45mins on hold gave up twice, i finally got through on the third attempt to be told they had delivered them to a store in a different county instead, as UPS did not have my correct address. My address was correct on the confirmation e-mail so if that was true, then Aldo gave me my incorrect address. At this stage they offered for me to collect them from the store, but it was miles away. I asked for a refund and was advised I would see it across my account in 10 business days. After 12 days I rang them today to be advised that it still had not been processed internally, and would be shortly, and then I would receive my fund in a further 3-5 working days. So I will not receive my money back for over a month from the time I asked for a refund, and that if they keep their word today. I have been chasing this order now for over 2 months and I yet to either receive any boots or the money for the 2nd pair. I sincerely regret ever going near their website. They keep using the excuse of 'The Holidays', but I do alot of online shopping and I have not had any of these nightmarish scenarios with other retailers. If you've fallen for a pair of their shoes, do yourself a favour and order them in store. Their online facility is ridiculous.

Do not do business with this vendor
I ordered a pair of boots online from ALDO that turned out to be too big. They came in a box, within a bag, and that bag apparently had the 'original' receipt taped to it. I threw away the bag without realizing that, thinking there would be a receipt and packing slip inside. However, there was no other paperwork in the bag, or the box with the boots. I now want to return the boots, but the store will not accept them back because I don't have the receipt that was on the outside of the bag. the store advised me to return them online. when I attempted to do just that the online site would not process my return. Every time I filled in the data and clicked continue it put me back to the original return page and won't give me an RMA. so, you cannot return the boots online, or at the store because the store won't accept my online receipt and credit card statement showing that I was charged for the purchase. The ALDO site shows that returns are "easy to get" and good within 1 yr of purchase, but that is clearly not the case. apparently there is no way for me to get my refund. I consider this to be fraud. furthermore, the phone number for the local store disappears when you do a web search, & there is NO, I repeat NO WAY to get a telephone number for customer service. DO NOT do business with this vendor. I have been a faithful customer of ALDO's for years and will NEVER buy anything there again. they have lost a customer permanently.
